Nurminen transferred two craftsmen's houses belonging to the Museum of Central Finland.
Nurminen Logistics also has decades of experience in the transport of large museum artefacts.
Nurminen Logistics has the skill and decades of experience in the transport of large museum artefacts. At the beginning of March 2010, Nurminen Logistics moved two craftsmen’s houses to a new address for the Museum of Central Finland.
The houses were moved to the new location in one piece. The transportation was demanding, not only because of the size, but because the buildings are old museum buildings, they are priceless and cannot be replaced through insurance. Moving the houses was a long project and the planning began in May 2009. Several parties from museum experts to crane contractor were involved in the project and good co-operation ensured that everything went well.
Nurminen understood that it was a question of a unique consignment, which perhaps entailed even greater challenges than usual. The whole project was extremely finely planned and managed.

The houses were moved within the centre of the town, which is why the schedule had to be planned well. The streets had to be closed for loading, unloading and transportation. Nurminen’s traffic operators measured the transportation route and mapped obstacles that had to be removed from the path. Prior to the transportation, Nurminen staff removed numerous traffic signs and advertisements from lamp posts along the way. In addition to this, we obtained the required special permits for the transportation and co-operated with the police in traffic management.
